Ive no plan to meet second best nor be second best and I wouldn't want to put someone through that nor go through it.
We live in a world of consumption and throw away culture, we should have more respect then to inflict these ideas on living breathing and feeling people.
Fuck that guy and his creed.

  It's clearly meant as a parody of the way relationships end, but said out loud, in advance, to show the absurdity of exactly what you called out: "trading up" out of a relationship.
  The whole point of his post, was to get people to realize how shitty it is to think of people that way.
  
  No this guy is a guru and has influenced a lot of silicon valley with this type of "parody" look him up if you haven't already.
  
  Oof, fair enough. I just ran head first into Poe's law. Thank you for the added context. Yeah, he's a piece of shit then.
- Correction, you wouldnt be second best, you would be the second best she/he could find
